OSPI Looking For Submissions to Graduation: A Team Effort (GATE)
GATE:Ways of Expression
The stories of students and young people can have a profound impact across the state of Washington, from the classrooms and communities to the state legislature.
Your stories need to be heard.
Graduation: A Team Effort (GATE) is a state initiative working to better serve the youth of Washington by aligning dropout prevention, intervention, and re-engagement efforts in our state. We’re looking for teen artists to publish on the GATE website to broadcast the youth voice of Washington. Share your story and compete with teens from around the state to become one of the GATE:Ways of Expression Artists of the Month!
Every month, there is a new theme for the contest. Delve deeper into the themes to consider how the themes have affected your life and your community.
What’s in it for you?

· Awards and accolades to add to your portfolio and resume.
· Art, student advocacy, and statewide impact.
